Hybrid Kaval

Hybrid Kaval is an experimental instrument elaborated by us together with my friend David Faulwasser. It's made with the idea of multi-style playing in mind. It is possible to use different playing positions on it: turkish (over the right side of the lips), persian (between upper front teeth), khakass khobrakh flute style (between upper 2nd and 3rd tooth), shakuhachi position. The playing tube is interchangable: you can use 8-hole turkish kaval system or 9-hole armenian blul system. It is chromatic and have the range of 3 octaves.
